The wrong hands belong to Robert Douglas who is the brother of the heir to the throne. Problems arise when it is learned there are evil forces at work and our leading man must take the place of the real heir to keep the country in line and the throne from falling to the wrong hands. When he is approached by Louis Calhern and his double it is found he is a far distant relative and enjoys a night of drinking with the soon to be King. Our film starts with Granger arriving for a fishing trip one day before a coronation is about to take place crowning his lookalike to the throne. MGM decorates this film with not only a wonderful palette of colors but a first rate cast to surround Granger as well. Stewart Granger takes on the dual role in this technicolor version of the famed story fifteen years after Ronald Colman essayed the role. “Fate doesn’t always make the right man King.”
